Days after recovering from his surgery, filmmaker Rakesh Roshan astonished everyone by showcasing the ‘Aavan Jaavan’ hookstep from Hrithik Roshan and Kiara Advani’s ‘War 2’. Hrithik reposted the video of Rakesh dancing to the romantic track alongside a dance troupe.

In the clip, the director of ‘Krrish 3′ is seen joyfully dancing to the love song while beaming at the camera. As the video concludes, Rakesh waves goodbye. The reel has a playful vibe, featuring the veteran in a hat, a floral shirt, blue jeans, and white shoes.

Hrithik, while sharing his father’s Instagram video, commented, “UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!! Hahahahaha…Best Ever…Papa you have killed it !!…what grace (sic)!” In his original post, Rakesh included a humorous caption stating, “Baap bhi kuch kam nahin (Even the father doesn’t lag behind)…’Aavan Jaavan’ is pure contagious joy. Congratulations @hrithikroshan, @kiaraaliaadvani, @yrf, @ayan_mukerji, @ipritamofficial, @boscomartis and team you’ve got me dancing!”

Rakesh recently had angioplasty after finding a significant blockage in his carotid artery. In his Instagram message, he encouraged individuals over 45 to prioritize preventive health checks for the heart and brain.

Previously, Hrithik had challenged his fans to perform the ‘Aavan Jaavan’ hookstep by tagging Yash Raj Films (YRF) and using the song’s hashtag.

In the official video released by YRF, the ‘War 2’ star stated, “Hey guys! This is Hrithik Roshan and my latest song ‘Aavan Jaavan’ from ‘War 2’ is out now and YRF is hosting a contest for the hookstep! Iss gaane ka hookstep kaafi simple or easy hai (The hookstep of this song is very simple).

Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Aditya Chopra, ‘War 2’ also stars Jr NTR, who faces off against Hrithik’s character, Kabir Dhaliwal, in the film.
